Montezuma Creamery Warehouse
Another warehouse ready for primer. This is the Montezuma Creamery warehouse in Dolores CO, on my Sn3 layout. Another scratch build as no kits exist. But I had one photo of another modeler's building, which was too big for my layout. So I selectively reduced it. It will eventually be roofed and sided with dark green corrugated siding/roofing. There are dock doors on the side you see - but everything is black.
Again, like for the Bean Warehouse, I need the shipment of strip wood to finish things. It was mailed from Denver on May 15th. Having a pleasant trip I guess. Probably arrive this week. Once that arrives, I can get the trim on the roofs of all three warehouses, and finish the front false wall of the last two.
Then I will prime this warehouse white, as well as the windows. The Bean Warehouse will get a dark gray prime and a final coat of lighter gray. The windows will also be dark gray. Enough white I think.
The Creamery warehouse is different in that it had a nice porch in front which I drew up and scratch built. The deck will get covered with more strip wood and stained with an ink wash. This warehouse will also have a door open so I have built a shadow box for the interior. Since my first attempt looked good - when using a flashlight to see in - I decided to add a micro LED to the roof of both shadow boxes that will illuminate the Insides.
Always another project.
BTW - another Veterans' Day today in the US. A good day to say thank you to the men and women that gave their lives and allowed us the freedom we so cherish. My brother (Blipper NannaK's husband) and I both served in the late 60's, early 70's. Glad that era is over. Neither of us had a "bone spur" or a rich daddy so off we went.
